The health and status information on the Status page represents the state of the service or role instance at a given point in time. The charts (and the Logs and Events under Diagnostics) represent the time range selected on the Time Range Selector (which defaults to the past 30 minutes). You can view health, status, and chart historical data by expanding the Time Range Selector (click the mini line chart under "admin") and moving the time marker () to a point in the past.

When you move the time marker to a point in the past (for services and roles that support health history), the entire Status page updates to the time selected. A Now button () allows you to quickly return to the current state of the service. The Actions menu is disabled while viewing a past status to ensure that you cannot accidentally act on outdated status information.

See Time Line for more details.

The Status Summary shows the status of each service instance being managed by Cloudera Manager. Even services such as Hue, Oozie, or YARN (which are not monitored by Cloudera Manager) show a status summary. The overall status for a service is a roll-up of the health test results for the service and all its role instances. The Status can be:

Table 1. Status

Indicator	Status	Description
	Started with outdated configuration	For a service, this indicates the service is running, but at least one of its roles is running with a configuration that does not match the current configuration settings in Cloudera Manager. For a role, this indicates a configuration change has been made that requires a restart, and that restart has not yet occurred. Click the indicator to display the Stale Configurations page.
	Starting	The entity is starting up but is not yet running.
	Stopping	The entity is stopping but has not stopped yet.
	Stopped	The entity is stopped, as expected.
	Down	The entity is not running, but it is expected to be running.
	History not available	Cloudera Manager is in historical mode, and the entity does not have historical monitoring support. This is the case for services other than HDFS, MapReduce and HBase such as ZooKeeper, Oozie, and Hue.
	None	The entity does not have a status. For example, it is not something that can be running and it cannot have health. Examples are the HDFS Balancer (which runs from the HDFS Rebalance action) or Gateway roles. The Start and Stop commands are not applicable to these instances.
	Good health	The entity is running with good health. For a specific health test, the returned result is normal or within the acceptable range. For a role or service, this means all health tests for that role or service are Good.
	Concerning health	The entity is running with concerning health. For a specific health test, the returned result indicates a potential problem. Typically this means the test result has gone above (or below) a configured Warning threshold. For a role or service, this means that at least one health test is Concerning.
	Bad health	The entity is running with bad health. For a specific health test, the test failed, or the returned result indicates a serious problem. Typically this means the test result has gone above (or below) a configured Critical threshold. For a role or service, this means that at least one health test is Bad.
	Disabled health	The entity is running, but all of its health tests are disabled.
	Unknown health	The status of a service or role instance is unknown. This can occur for a number of reasons, such as the Service Monitor is not running, or connectivity to the Agent doing the health monitoring has been lost.

To see the status of one or more role instances, click the role type link under Status Summary. If there is a single instance of the role type, the link directs you to the Status page of the role instance.

If there are multiple role instances (such as for DataNodes, TaskTrackers, and RegionServers), the role type link directs you to the Role Instances page for that role type. Click on each instance, under Role Type, to be taken to the corresponding Status page.

To display the results for each health test that applies to this role type, expand the Health Tests filter on the left and expand Good Health, Warnings, Bad Health, or Disabled Health. Health test results that have been filtered out by your role type selection appear as unavailable.

For example:

Other services such as Hue, Oozie, Impala, and Cloudera Manager itself, do not provide a Service Summary.

The Health Tests and Health History panels appear for HDFS, MapReduce, HBase, Flume, Impala, ZooKeeper, and the Cloudera Manager Service. Other services such as Hue, Oozie, and YARN do not provide a Health Test panel.

The Health Tests panel shows health test results in an expandable and collapsible list, typically with the specific metrics that the test returned. (You can Expand All or Collapse All from the links at the upper right of the Health Tests panel).

• The color of the text (and the background color of the field) for a Health Test result indicates the status of the results. The tests are sorted by their health status – Good, Concerning, Bad, or Disabled. The entries are collapsed by default. Click the arrow to the left of an entry to expand the entry and display further information.
• Clicking the Details link for a health test displays further information about the test, such as the meaning of the test and its possible results, suggestions for actions you can take or how to make configuration changes related to the test. The help text may include a link to the relevant monitoring configuration section for the service. See Configuring Monitoring Settings for more information.
• In the Health Tests panel:
  • Clicking displays the lists of health tests that contributed to the health test.
  • Clicking the Details link displays further information about the health test.
• In the Health History panel:
  • Clicking displays the lists of health tests that contributed to the health history.
  • Clicking the Show link moves the time range to the historical time period.

HDFS, MapReduce, HBase, ZooKeeper, Flume, and Cloudera Management Service all display charts of some of the critical metrics related to their performance and health. Other services such as Hive, Hue, Oozie, and Solr do not provide charts.

See Viewing Charts for Cluster, Service, Role, and Host Instances for detailed information on the charts that are presented, and the ability to search and display metrics of your choice.

From the Flume Service Status page, click the Flume Metric Details link in the Flume Summary panel to display details of the Flume agent roles.

On this page you can view a variety of metrics about the Channels, Sources and Sinks you have configured for your various Flume agents. You can view both current and historical metrics on this page.

The Channels section shows the metrics for all the channel components in the Flume service. These include metrics related to the channel capacity and throughput.

The Sinks section shows metrics for all the sink components in the Flume service. These include event drain statistics as well as connection failure metrics.

The Sources section shows metrics for all the source components in the Flume service.

This page maintains the same navigation bar as the Flume service status page, so you can go directly to any of the other tabs (Instances, Commands, Configuration, or Audits).
